His mom is Filipina. It’s why he was cast as Andrew Cunanan!

Minor pet peeve: when the order of the names in the headline don’t match the order of the pictures. Y’all wrote the headline and made the little photo montage so flip the names or the pictures so they match, Variety!

Ashamed to admit that at times, I miss being a Steven fan and then I see his face and I get angry all over again :)))))

Like I truly have not been so disappointed in a stranger like I was with him lmao.

Did anything ever happen with that whole David Choe mess or did it just sort of get largely ignored because the show was so successful? ugh. :(

After their official non-statement, they, especially Steven, pretty much moved on. The success of the show and awards season sweep pretty much made it so they won't have to address Choe or the situation anymore 🥲🥲🥲

Like all Steven had to do was a genuine apologetic statement and make a donation to a women's shelter and I would've be more than happy to go back to stanning, but he couldn't even do that smfh. Someone (who was also Korean) mentioned that they weren't surprised by his non-response and support of Choe given Steven's upbringing because he's similar to a lot of E.Asian men esp those who are religious/raised in church.

Love being reminded that how much E. Asian people dislike Black people whilst still benefiting from us 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

Absolutely nothing happened and neither he nor Ali have said shit since their non-apology

As a former Steven fan, I agree, it’s a damn shame
